Club Night horror! A comeback story

Club Night horror! A comeback story

  • First - Step into the club &it’s eeemty - I have to say getting booked with exactly an hours notice to get to the spot isn’t exactly enough time to invite many people.
  • Secondly - They tell my 19yearold girlfriend she has to dip (21&Over, I’m 23) Pull some strings - tell 'em she runs effects, after some hassle she gets to stay.
  • Third - &It only gets worse - Set up my computer, soundcard, mixer, &kp3 then run it threw the clubs mixer &suuuper low out put (volume)
  • friend hasn’t finished my metal flake paint job so oxygen 8’s out of commish

Mess with stuff for a little then finally, disconnect my kp3 & mixer and plug straight into the club mixer (djm 800) to find out my soundcards f*&%ed. Followed by the resident dj handing me SL1 with No Drivers and another giving me a wireless net card without plug&play drivers…

Honestly, at this point Im almost out the door - I see people piling in & wanna play &In the corner of my eye i see a computer with an activated WiFi icon -with- an external harddrive hooked up, hahah - juuumped on it, went to Serado, downloaded SL1, threw it on the external, loaded it on my pc, configured it in Ableton, & blasted that rap club with my craziest indy-electro-experimental-electronic floor crushers, like i was back in Caalifornia

*thought my musical style would have me 86’d for sure, were talking a nice night club where Lil Jon played this past memorial weekend, hah but through and through got the invite to come back next week, good thing i hung in.

Man how has dj’ing become so nerdy these days? lol

great save on such a short notice!

Nice to hear you made a strong comeback :slight_smile:

It takes brains to compete with all the other millions of djs

cool man.

youre in oc huh? we should grab a beer or something sometime. im in anaheim

sounds like i should install serato on my macbook as a backup just incase i forget my audio8 or traktor starts bugging out.

Dope I’m from east Anaheim, grew up there but currently live in LHC Arizona
i was just saying i was rockin’ out “like i was still in so cal” but in Arizona.
hah which is not my element nor my musics…

  • but yea when i get back out there we’ll for sure take you partying with the neighbors that you always heard bumping music until 4am but never met///

&thanks for all the positive responses, this community is legit.

Good work on the big save. Quick thinking throughout man!
